Yes, this is my first official blog. No, this is not my first rodeo. Mother’s Day is coming quickly upon us and this blog is to celebrate the mamas out there, especially you Law Enforcement wives and moms out there.
Let me introduce myself… my name is Mary. I am the proud and crazy mother of four wonderfully “all boy” young males, a home-school teacher, a runner, and a rookie law enforcement wife, as well as many other things depending on the day. My husband was just sworn in four months ago, and already I have seen the amazing community in this profession.
But I also know there may be some ladies out there who are burnt out and may have grown weary to the position in which they have been blessed. Galatians 6:9 says not to get tired and give up for we will reap a harvest of blessing in due time. I want you to know you are amazing, and what you do matters. Those men could not do their jobs if they did not have you to pack their lunch (or dinner or breakfast), to keep their uniforms clean, to come home to every day or night, and yes, to keep the diapers clean on our future law enforcement officers.
So whether it’s physically with your LEO or listening to him on the scanner, I hope everyone one of you are able to enjoy your Mother’s Day and remember you are loved and appreciated!
